Author Biography
Petra Eiko was born in Germany. She has worked in the fields of architectural and fashion design and has traveled extensively throughout Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Fascinated by the differences and similarities in people, cultures, and lifestyles around the world, she ultimately discovered that we all face the same fundamental problems. That insight, coupled with her lifelong curiosity about the workings of the human mind led her to spend many years studying a broad spectrum of philosophical, metaphysical, and scientific texts. Petra Eiko's Seeds of Truth offers a fresh synthesis of both timeless wisdom and contemporary ideas in an entertaining, humorous, concise, and practical form.
ReviewsPetra Eiko is wholly adept at holding the human mind and heart in her hands and unraveling their mysteries. Each of these books is a treasure. The language is universal, the voice like clear water, sure and wise. For all those who wish to understand themselves and the universe, who we are, how we got there, what we should do with this life, these books are a must-read. Eiko has created something extraordinary, magical, and fine. She is a truth-teller extraordinaire. --Kate Gale, Ph. D Displaying the books in my medical office is the best investment that I have ever made. Not only are my patients well entertained during their waiting period, they also get inspired with positive attitudes towards their treatment and recovery. These incredible books enhanced my practice and professional reputation. --Cathryn Hu, Ph. D., OMD LAC A significant contribution to understanding your inner self. Refreshing and motivating. --Dr. Michael Neuner, Maxillo Facial Surgeon, Germany While giving voice to those aspects of life we all seek to understand--who we are and how our mind and emotions work--Petra Eiko's Seeds of Truth manages to be both light-hearted and life-affirming, simple without being simplistic, instructive without being didactic. These are delightful books. --Lisbeth Davidow, Ed. M., M.F.A.
